24. i like the thought from In Nomine tabletop game that 'Trade' is an Archangelic word
not pertinent to the flight stuff, but relevant to Matthew's messge about finances and NESARA. outside of our little bits of economic power, accorded to our current capacity, we can do so much. good. but we can also pour positive light into the economic sphere in a vibration focusing on FAIR trade and FAIR deals (because otherwise it becomes Theft, or Greed, or Secrets -- y'know, bad vibrations). and since it's rather hard for people to imagine Money being possibly a force for good ("money is the root of all evil" "for the love of money" "false god of the almighty dollar" etc), instead of just the relatively neutral tool it is, i thought it'd be nice to share a new interpretation and visualization of what all this commerce can be.

essentially the game deals with Archangels and Demon Princes vying for humanity. reality resonates to concepts, basically "Words" (yes, it's a very realist perspective, versus a nominalist one). a Word encompasses whole energetic resonances of what involves that meaning, which can change through time. so Flowers encompasses ideas of plants, peace, reproduction, love, kindness, gardens, etc. Greed involves hoarding, bad deals, cheating, egregious CEO bonuses, etc. which gets back to Trade. at first a very simple concept: one that brings humans NON-VIOLENTLY TOGETHER to MUTUALLY EXCHANGE and satisfy each other's NEEDS and/or DESIRES. inherently a wonderful thing. from there a whole arrange of neat human tools are created to facilitate this wonderfully peaceful and productive and sharing concept. but it can be corrupted and contested, just like anything.

that's where my somewhat insane comment comes in. sometimes it's hard to think of Trade and Commerce as a good thing, what with Wall Street and layoffs and outsourcing and globalization. but it has been before, and it can be again. going back to NESARA, the Light needs a way to 'get back into the game' through direct economic channels, even though it has been quite successful through external indirect channels. but what it needs is hope, light, support, imagination, and energy from people to BELIEVE it is possible. and what faster way to generate and focus belief than to give it a Name as a Target to appeal to?

in the game (it's just a game -- or is it? :evilgrin:), the Archangel of Trade is named Marc. Its job is to promote the heavenly aspects of trade, commerce, and exchange. concepts like barter, craigslist, freecycle, KIVA, etc. could all be seen as inspirations or protected by this conceptual Archangel. now, i could care less what name you use, but the idea that there is a being of light to appeal to and provide a beacon of hope in the currently troubled world of commerce is not a wholly bad idea. its not an idol to worship, or complain about unanswered prayers, or whatever, just a direction and a shape to visualize your positive energy towards Trade. think of this economic correction as a righteous vengeance upon bad actors -- but the light also needs energy to do more than punish wrongdoing, it also needs hope and imagination to fill in the vacuum left behind and help the victims.

just a thought to make Matthew's message a bit more .... "tangible" i guess.
